Tonight when I was giving Hilbert his meds several of the ferrets needed to use the litter pot. Whizbang couldn't get in so she turned tail in the direction of the litter pot. I thought that she was going to go on the cage floor, but, no, she was farting in the faces of those in the pot. I think it was her way of saying, "Hurry up in there! I need to use the bathroom!" and it was very effective. They didn't stall at all, and then she climbed in and tended to business. -- Sukie (not a vet) Ferret Health List co-moderator http://www.smartgroups.com/groups/ferrethealth FHL Archives fan http://ferrethealth.org/archive/ replacing http://fhl.sonic-weasel.org International Ferret Congress advisor http://www.ferretcongress.org [Posted in FML issue 5184]
